    Item arrived as described! Great communication from the seller. There are some reviews complaining about tracking info, you have to change delivery to first class which includes tracking; it defaults to media mail, there is no way to track media mail.

    Preppydom preserved.

    The book is a period piece -- a different era. It is a worthy spoof of blatant pretentiousness and sometimes dubious privilege. But the book is also endearing in a way. "You would have had to be there". Worth the hefty price? Not if you have to ask. I would write more here. But I need to get moving along with ordering an new belt with nautical flags.

  • Out of Print But Still A Blast to Read

    A blast from the past. I had this book back in the early 80s, and lost it somewhere over the last 40 years. I wanted to buy another one to share with my children. Of course it’s out of print today, so if you find one it’ll be pretty pricey, but it’s still fun to read and share.

  • Fun book but out of print now

    I am replacing one I had. Fun read. Since it’s out of print, I guess people think they can charge the moon for a paperback.

  • Classic parody

    The book is a satire of the wasp american elites of the early 20th century. Interesting read.
